"Winter Night Reading Shows Ziyu"

"The Joy of Reading in Four Seasons? Spring"
Yuan Wengsen
The mountain light is blowing on the threshold and the water is around the corridor, and the dancing nuns return to the Wing Chun fragrance.
Good birds are also friends on the branches, and fallen flowers are articles on the water surface.

How is the joy of reading? The green grass in front of the window is not weeded.
The birds perched on the branches are my friends who accompany me when I read; the fallen flowers floating on the water can inspire me to write wonderful articles. Don't waste time, reading is the best thing in life. What is the joy of reading? It's like green grass growing up to the window without cutting it off. Looking around, it's a prosperous scene.

"One of Two Poems with Thoughts on Reading Books"
Zhu Xi of the Song Dynasty
A half-acre square pond is open, and the skylight and cloud shadows linger endlessly.
Ask him how clear it is? Come for living water from a source.
The half-acre square pond is displayed in front of you like a mirror. The brilliance of the sky and the shadow of the floating clouds all move together in the mirror. I want to ask why the water in Fangtang is so clear? It is because there is an inexhaustible source that continuously delivers living water to it.
"Guan Shu"
Ming Yu Qian
The book is as affectionate as an old friend, with joy and sorrow every morning and evening.
There are three thousand words in front of my eyes, and there is not a speck of dust in my chest.
The source of living water is everywhere, and the east wind brings new flowers and willows every time.
The golden saddle and jade are looking for a beautiful guest. If you don’t believe that there will be no spring in our house.
My feelings for books are like friends that have been with me for many years. No matter whether I am sad or happy in the morning or evening, I always have them with me. After browsing countless words in front of my eyes, I no longer have any distracting thoughts in the world.
Fresh ideas are constantly flowing
